Massachusetts man wins half of $61M Mega Millions jackpot

HYANNIS, Mass. — A Massachusetts man is $30.5 million richer after splitting Tuesday night's $61 million Mega Millions jackpot with a co-winner from California.

Sandeep "Sunny" Singh can hardly catch his breath. Today he's posing for pictures with a giant check for $30.5 million. Yesterday, this newly minted millionaire was busy working two jobs to help his mom pay the bills.

"Ahh, I'm like overwhelmed right now," he said after cashing in his ticket at Lottery headquarters.

He was so busy he nearly missed out on buying his winning ticket. Sunny's sister ran to the AM PM convenience store in Hyannis to buy a quick pick Mega Millions ticket for him.

Years ago I lost a job and my girlfriend dumped me. A few months later I got a new job that pays much higher. Miraculously, she called me to reconcile and saying that it was really all her fault. I said no to her and she really got mad. To this day if I see her she won't talk to me.

At 22 years old I would almost never recommend taking a lump sum. But since he works at a bank until the end of the quarter, he can get some good advice hopefully. Continued blessings to this man and his family for his hard work and dedication.
